I don’t understand how my dogs aren’t bald.
Got a fluffy black cat and a fluffy white cat. I also mostly gave up.
I’ve got a black dog and a white dog, one furry, one hairy. A little of everything, like a nice sampler platter.
one furry
I’d ask them politely to only wear the fursona outside the house
I put a full couch cover on the they usually vomit on it within 2 days.
My friend felted the dog fur into a sweater for her hairless cat. Felters truly are the trash goblins of the art world.
And that’s the single main reason I don’t want another cat after my two cats died, a few years ago. Love cats, but living in an apartment makes dealing with hair a real struggle.
Some shed very little compared to others. Afaiu shorthairs are better in this regard.
I am the owner of a black fabric couch and a large dog with longish, mostly white fur. It’s a battle against windmills.
Barn cats are peak cat. You get to play with them outside, they eat rodents, they don’t come inside and ruin everything.
Yeah, fuck the local wildlife if it means you don’t have to deal with the hair of your pet being on your couch.
Do you get upset about the coyotes and bears that live outside? Do you get upset some people avoid homes filled with pet dander, and their petless homes are cleaner than others?
no i just feed shelter cats to the coyotes while my daughter cries
This is the worst argument I’ve ever heard in defense of outdoor cats. Granted, there are zero legitimate arguments for outdoor cats, so managing to find such a shitty reason is actually kind of impressive.
I cannot care less, pets are a luxury. Enjoy your fuzzy furniture. Farm animals live in a barn.
cats are devastating to local ecosystems. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_predation_on_wildlife
So are humans
Yeah, and introducing invasive species is one of our strongest weapons to that end.
No, because they are not hunting bird and small animal species to extinction.
They’re also part of the native ecosystem so anything they do kill is generally for subsitence, and not impactful to the ecosystem they’ve existed with for thousands of years.
Barn cats just kill for fun.
*Rodents, the local birds, and other small animals.
Good if you have kids too. Encourages them to go outside
Pet hair, glitter, and nerf darts. You will never finish getting rid of them
You’ve been to my house, it seems.
I literally stumbled on a nerf dart like a couple hours ago, what the hell?!
This is why nerf darts are strictly banned from my home. It’s like they multiply after the first one is lost under a couch cushion
I will see your Nerf darts, and raise you airsoft BBs. I still find the cats playing with one every now and again, or pick up a stray one with the vacuum cleaner. I can’t remember firing an airsoft gun inside the house at any time more recently than about 15 years ago. And yet.
i second that. whenever i think i finally cleaned up the last BB i still find one more laying around
Years ago (2019), my ex and I bought those little magnetic balls for our kids. To this day she is still finding those balls all over her house.
~It’s the gift that keeps on giving.~
And that’s why I have leather couches. You don’t see the hair until you need to move the cushions, then you have little mountains to vacuum up. Or, put the cushion back down and watch your living room turn into a snow globe
But their nails will ruin the couches before long.
That’s why I have covers on my fake leather couch. 2 layers, actually, but we used to have a great Dane.
15 years and counting. Idk if Italian leather makes the difference though. I didn’t buy them, gift from my parents. Nails aren’t the issue, wet dog is. Every year I have to buy leather dye but it doesn’t last. I’m about to get rid of them.
Having cats is like having toddlers but for thd rest of your life, idk how people like it
That’s because most people don’t train their cats. They let them get away with stuff as a kitten because it’s cute, so when they’re adults and the behavior is an actual issue, it’s much harder to train out.
But I wasn’t even talking about them scratching on the furniture. Pet nails often touch the surface they’re standing on, so they will cause damage by just existing if allowed on the furniture.
